Hi! I came seeking like-minded people and self-help here as I've recently been fully reminded that my PTSD has not abated. I was living with extreme nerves - to a comical degree: someone scratched their nose and I scream bloody murder and leap out of my chair.
I thought that was the last remnant but what I now know is that by avoiding any possible triggers (dominant men) I was just packing the proverbial bowling balls away in a closet. They've all come out except the nightmares.
My PTSD stems from a sexual relationship that a therapist initiated 6 months into treatment for mild depression 10 yrs ago. I've avoided any sexual connection that had the same 'tone' as with the Dr. It's a tricky thing as I was attracted so the feelings are muddled with suicide, lust, and confusion. Any help is appreciated.
